Gentle Journeys helps people with autism run their own day. Parents, caregivers, educators, and clinicians start with a short conversation. A first day at a new school, a first day at a new job, a morning that keeps falling apart, a multi-step task like making lunch. You get back a personalized story or routine with their name, how they actually look, the people and pets they love, the places they go, and narration that can even be a voice they know. WHAT YOU CAN MAKE Stories. Realistic personalized images, one page at a time, narrated. Routines. Step-by-step visual schedules, guided by voice and personalized images, so they don't have to hold the whole sequence in their head. Token boards. Tap a token, watch it fill, land the goal. A daily plan. Today's activities in order, unlocking one at a time, so they can run their own day. Most apps make materials for the adult. Gentle Journeys is the person's own tool. HOW IT WORKS Create a profile with their photo, and optionally photos of the people, pets, places, and favorite things in their life. That is the whole setup. Everything you create after that is already personalized: their name, their appearance, their whole world. Every creation is 100% unique. No templates, no clip art. Ask for what you need in plain language. The assistant guides and drafts it, you edit and approve it. That's it. Pick from six narration voices. With GentleVoice, record thirty seconds of your voice, once, and every story and routine is narrated in your voice. WHO IT IS FOR Parents. Therapists. BCBAs. Speech pathologists. Teachers. Anyone building the supports that let a person do the next thing on their own. It works for a four-year-old and it works for a thirty-year-old. Independence does not have an age. ABOUT THE APP Gentle Journeys was built by a father for his non-speaking son with autism. The whole product points one direction: what a person can accomplish with the right support in front of them. This app is a companion to gentlejourneys.ai. Sign in with the account you already have, or create one in the app. Subscriptions unlock unlimited creation and voice narration; the GentleVoice tier adds real voice cloning. Billing runs through your App Store account. Everything you create here shows up on the web and the other way around.
